The Bodyguard System

Jaden went back to the hotel, and back to his suite. They had already separated with nameless, but they were going to meet up the following day.

Asphalt had happened, Jaden had initially wanted to use his physical ability, nut he realized that it was going to take a lot of time for him to be able to deal with the car.

It was at that moment that he decided that it was better if he used his telekinesis ability in order to deal with the car. Even though it was going to attract the attention of the mutants, at least, it was going to be fast.

So, he used his telekinesis ability, crushing the car into a ball, before the two of them left the area in just a few minutes.

Along the way, Jaden noticed that two figures were rushing towards the direction that they had come from. He could immediately tell that they were mutants, considering that they were moving at an incredible pace.

Jaden was slightly surprised when he noticed that the speed of the two figures that were moving on top of buildings was faster as compared to those speedsters that he had encountered before. From this, he could tell that their ability was stronger than the others.

Nevertheless, the two of them did not pay attention to the mutants, and they headed back to the hotel. That was where nameless left Jaden, claiming that he had something to deal with first, and they were going to meet the following day in order to discuss what next.

As for Jaden himself, the moment that he got back to his suite, he immediately took out the stone. He scrutinized it, but he realized that there was nothing that was different from the way that he had seen it before.

Jaden sat on his bed as he looked at the stone, thinking of the method that he was going to use in order to get something from it. Yes, it could be said that it was reckless of him to use the rebate card on the stone, considering that he did not even know the mysteries surrounding it.

But Jaden believed that this was not just an impulse. He believed that if the original stone was capable of creating mutants, then this one was definitely capable of creating even better things.

It was just that It was extremely difficult for Jaden to be able to know of a method of using this stone. As for asking the system, Jaden did not even think about it. Read new chapters at empire

In any case, on several occasions, he had already tried asking the system about several things, but the system never responded to him about them. Well, he just hoped that maybe there was a possibility that he was going to get something good the next time that he completed his mission as a bodyguard.

In that case, he would be able to find out about the stone, and know how to use it. Then, he would be able to use it on John, ensuring that the guy would be able to survive being a mutant.

{The system has finalized the upgrade. Currently, the system is fully functional, and all the abilities of the system have been recovered.}

{Updates have occurred to the system, and currently, according to the current situation that the host is facing, changes have been made.}

{The current changes that have been made to the system include a store which will enable the host to purchase anything that the host needs.}

{Whatever can be found within the store depends on the amount of money that the host possesses. Anything can be purchased from the store at a reasonable price.}

Jaden was completely surprised the moment that he heard the prompt from the system. He had forgotten that the system had informed him that it was undergoing an upgrade, and it was going to be fully functional.

It was completely unexpected to Jaden that the system that had been helping him to develop to the level that he was at the moment, was actually just half of it. And now that it was completed, Jaden was completely curious about the new functions that the system possessed.

It was just that from the prompts that he had received from the system, it seemed that the only change that had occurred this time was they appearance of a store.

But Jaden was curious about this store. Just what was contained within this store, in such a way that the system was bold enough to say that he would be able to get anything as long as he had money?

'System, how can I access the store?' Jaden suddenly asked.

But the moment that he asked the question, instead of the system responding to him, a screen appear in front of him.

[Store

{Abilities}

{Pills}

{Skills}

{Resources}

{Facilities}]

Looking at the categories in front of him, Jaden was curious. Immediately, he started with the first one, abilities.

In the next moment, another screen appeared in front of him, displaying an array of abilities. They included things like telekinesis, an increase in strength, and ability to transform into metal, the ability to control liquid, and many more.

Of course, each and every one of them was given a price. And other than that, there was an explanation of the ability itself, and the extent of uses that it could be used for.

It was just that the moment that he looked at the price of the abilities, Jaden was completely surprised. At the same time, he could not help but think that the price was just too high.

But when he thought about it, he realized that even if someone had money, they would obviously not be able to gain an ability. If money could actually buy an ability, then the government and the Raven mercenary groups would not have been struggling so much.

Considering that they had spent a lot of money in the research, they would have simply used that money in order to acquire the abilities.

[Telekinesis: Grade C: This allows a person to be able to control physical things with their mind. The maximum weight that they can carry is 500 kg. Cost: $100 million.]

This was for the telekinesis ability that Jaden possessed. But considering that he could carry tons of weight, it was clear that his ability was way beyond this ability that was being shown within the system store.

Of course, this was not the only ability that was shown within the store that was related to telekinesis. Instead, it involved different grades, with grade C being the lowest.

As for the highest grade of the abilities, it was actually grade SSS. As for the price of the highest grade of telekinesis ability, it was actually priced at $100 trillion.

It could be said that the price of this ability was not high, if actually a person managed to read through the description of the ability. Gazing at the descriptions, even Jaden himself was completely stunned.

[Telekinesis: Grade SSS: This….. The maximum weight that one can carry using the ability is at 1,000,000 tones. Price: $100 trillion.]

Just how heavy was 1 million tons? One could already imagine that kind of weight. And, this ability could allow a person to be able to control such weight.

Without hesitation, Jaden immediately communicated with the AI. "How much is in my account at the moment?"

{Currently, due to the limited transactions made on the stock market, you have $10 trillion.}

Even Jaden himself was surprised the moment that he heard the amount. He had not anticipated that the stock market could actually give him such a huge amount of money.

But this was obviously not enough. He would need to find a way of earning that $90 trillion. He wanted to gain this ability, in order to feel safe.

Currently, he was not going to be that much worried as long as he had enough money. With enough money, he would be able to gain any ability of his liking. And, the power of the ability would also be high, which would obviously indicate that he was powerful.

It was just that Jaden was kind of curious, just how powerful were the leaders of the two forces? Could it be that their ability had also reached grade SSS?

Jaden shook his head before communicating with the AI. "I want you to go all out, find all the possible means to get me money. I want at least $100 trillion as soon as possible. If it can exceed that amount, then that will be good."

{Are you not worried that if you accumulate such a huge amount of money in a very small amount of time, you are going to affect the economy?}

"At this point, it really doesn't matter. After all, I'm pretty sure that in the near future, there is a possibility that money is no longer going to matter." Jaden responded simply.

With that finally out of the way, Jaden focused on the other categories that could be found in the store. The next category that he browsed was the category that possessed pills.

The moment that he accessed the pills category, he realized that there were so many pills that could be found. It was not just some kind of pills that could not be found on the market, but even those simple painkillers could actually be found within the store.

Of course, Jaden immediately looked for one thing that he had been using till this time. It was none other than the physique enhancing pill. After browsing for a while, he found it.
